GENTLEMEN-I take pleasure in testi-
fying to the remarkably beneficial effects
of Goochs Mexican Syrup, as evidenced
in the case of my little son who was suf-
fering from severe cold consequent
upon weather changes. One dose com
pletely relieved him, and the further adj
ministration of the Syrup resulted in eX-
pelling the cold and sore throat He is
now rapidly convalescing. This state
ment is given without any suggestion or
solicitation. L have considered it a duty
to acquaint you with some additional
facts in regard to your wonderful prep
aration. Yours very truly, JAS }. Mitch

James Plumber, of Bloomfield Town
ship, called on Friday, and during the
course of conversation, told the follow
ing true snake story: While Mr.. Plum
mer and another gentleman were digging
near an old ore-drift, and at depth of
some two feet, they came upon nine
snakes, and number of toads, all in the
same hole The snakes were of several
varieties, the black snakes being in the
majority. This was on the fifteenth of
January. What surprised the gentleman
who found the snakes was that the snakes
had not devoured the toads, and that they
seemed to be living peaceably together
The snakes were active and struck out
wickedly when approached.

Attention Farmers and Business Men of
Jackson County.
Creamery Versus The Work of the Farmers
Wives.

A free Lecture will be given Saturday
at half past one o'clock, Feb. 5th, 1887, at
the Court House, by John Wilhelm, of
Wooster, Ohio, Contractor of ID. Fl. Roe
& Co.. Chicago, Ills. Manufacturing of
Creamery and Dairy goods, with the view
of establishing Creamery at Jackson
with the capacity of 1000 lbs of Butter
per day. Will have on exhibition the
Wilhelm Creamery Milk Can to show
perfect system of producing more and
better cream with less than one half the
labor to the farmers wives than the old
manner of setting milk Will also exhib-
it roll of creamery butter and show it
against the best farm made butter in the
County. Some facts for the farmers to
consider Jackson Co. in 1884 according to
the Census Report returned by the assess
ors, 315O21 lbs. of butter made We will
assume that the production for this year
is the same. 1t probably is larger. The
best grade of dairy butter is now worth
in any market from IS to zoe per h., and
the best grade of creamery from 80 to 32c
per lb. Averaging these figures we have
10 and 81 cents as the price OF the best
grades of dairy and creamery butter. Re-
spectively showing difference of II cts.
per pound IN favor of creamery butter.
The average difference for the last year
following Jan. 1, 1896 has been over cts.
per Id. If the butter made by the Farm
ers of your county during the current
year had been made in well managed
creameries it would have sold in this or
any other market for So, ,2O1.6S more than
can be realized from it as it is now being
made. In other words this amount is be-
ing wasted this year by the farmers of
Jackson County.
Special attention is called to all farm
ers' wives and lovers of good butter to be
present Remember the meeting, Feb.
5th, 80 P NJ at the Court House.

The hosting house at Franklin Mine
took fire one day last week and complete
ly burned, destroying the engine, and
somewhat burning the casing of the
shaft But little drawback like that
has very little effect upon man like
Morris Sternberger, and he at once set to
work fixing up. and the mine will soon be
in operation again. Morris is one of the
most energetic operators in the State, and
keeps things moving right along. The
same dash, and energy is noticeable in all
the Sternberger boys. They are excellent
business men, all.

4 Haunted Abbey.

Lady libby is again said to be haunt ing Bisham Abbey, and Is causing no little sensation.
 She was the wire of the English Ambas- sador to the Court of France in 1866. The Abbey is the most historic religious house in Berkshire, and in one of the apartments is peculiar painting repre- senting the lady with a very white face and wimple, then allowed to baronet's s lady.
 In this identical dress, it Is most strongly averred, she has been frequently seen in one of the bedrooms of the Abbey, with self-supporting basin moving be- fore her, in which she is perpetually try ing 10 wash her hands, but the most re- markable part of the story is that he so- called apparition alwaysS Sdppears in the negative. viz, the black part white and the white part black.
 The story as now told by the domestics and adjacent villagers, Is that she beat her son William to death because he could not write without making lots, i'd a singular part of the tale is that short time ago, in altering the shutters of the dining room great number of children's copy books Of the time of Queen Elizabeth were discovered pushed between the joists of the floor, some of which answered exactly to the tale as if the child could not write Q single line without making blot.
 Neither the domestics at the Abbey nor the adjacent villagers will hear one word against the narrative. - Phila 1elphla Telegraph.
